John Leslie isn't facing charges of sex assault. John was arrested and questioned last month after a woman claimed he raped her in 1995.
John Leslie's lawyer released a statement today about the latest developments in the case:
“We have today been informed by the Metropolitan Police that the complaint against John Leslie has been dropped. Yet again, after a complete and thorough investigation, it has been confirmed that there is no truth or substance to the damaging allegations that were made against our client last month. He is, of course, delighted. The complaint was ridiculous, but yet again and for a second time his name has been dragged through the mud before the law has had a chance to confirm his innocence. The law confers a blanket of anonymity on complainants, but the accused enjoys no such protection. Instead his reputation, his character, his career and his family are regarded as fair game by the media. There is little justice and no fairness in what our client and his family have been put through.”
